After a Breakup: Finding Hope and Healing

Walking Away﻿

Most relationship breakups happen in January. Why? Because it’s after the
holidays and before Valentine’s Day (the traditional love holiday for couples).

If you or someone you know are going through a dating relationship breakup or divorce, here’s some help
and hope. You can get through this confusing and painful time. Here are the 12 Steps of Relationship Breakup Recovery:

1. Deal with endings

2. Get the comfort and support you need

3. Grieve your losses

4. Heal your emotional pain (sadness, anger, fear, rejection, etc.)

5. Experience God’s amazing love for you

6. Discover the power of forgiveness

7. Learn to wait well

8. Awaken hope

9. Restore your confidence and self esteem

10. Wake up to the rest of your life

11. Make healthier choices next time

12. Live in the light

But how do you do this?

Check out
